Dog Years- A really great book

Dog Years is a very fascinating book about life in the sixth grade. It portrays the life of young Case, a boy who has just moved to a new school, and to top it off, has a dad in jail. Personally, I wouldn't know how to cope with this, but Case decides to make a comic to express his feelings. The comic, titled "Dog Years", is really a hilarious twist to his school life , featuring himself and his friends as cartoon dogs. I loved reading them! In the end, these comics turn out to be insanely popular, but get him into trouble. Even though I won't give away the ending, I'll tell you that IT IS GREAT! All in all, this book was extremely good, but was too short. At exactly 150 pages(not including the comics) Dog Years is a great read for any kid that is going to or has been in sixth grade.

A great read for all ages!

I read Dog Years when I was in sixth grade I loved the book so much! During some parts I laughed so very hard, and at others I thought I was going to cry! You can really empathize with the main character in this story! I recommend this book for children of all ages!
